In this issue

Vertical Life #42 is here with an epic cover featuring a classic Blue Mountains sandstone multipitch, and 84 content-packed pages. Zachary Barr takes us behind the scenes with Reel Rock 17 in Palestine; we launch a new Mindset Reset column with mountaineer and psychologist Dr Kate Baecher; photographer Jared Anderson will have you snorting into your coffee with a story about trying not to throw up on his hero as he dangles above Tim Macartney-Snape; we take a deep dive into making sustainable outdoors gear with Patagonia; William Skea shares how climbing helped him with mental health and cat rescues; Dave Barnes chronicles Seb Bouin’s incredible first ascent of Supreme Jumbo Love, the hardest sport route in the US; and guidebook writer Krish Seewraj reveals some of the lesser known crag classics on WA’s coast.
Alongside inspired storytelling and incredible images, Vertical Life #42 squeezes in recipes, crag coffee beta, reviews, safety tips, and more. It’s guaranteed to make you laugh, think, and climb a little differently.
